He came home

Tonight I’m just tired. Exhausted. Not physically. Emotionally.

Part of it is the fact that I really wanted to go on vacation today. I am tired. We haven’t been on vacation this year and I need a break. I was hoping that all my work would be done so that I wouldn’t have to work again until next year. No such luck. I have four more client’s VAT to do, which is probably a week’s worth of work. Hence the reason I’m sitting here working at 9 pm.

The other reason is that marriage sucks isn’t easy. Partnerships go well if both pull in the same direction. Not when one partner doesn’t come home and doesn’t have the common decency to phone and say so. No apology.

Aai tog Mel! I am also emotionaly drained though – these last 3 months have been rough. I really do hope you get your work done soon so that you too can have a break! Sorry bout the hubby thing – sometimes men can be so insensitive!!!!! *hugs to you and da boys* 🙂

You know quite frankly I would change the locks by myself while my husband was out. Girl, you are FAR nicer than I. If you need instructions on how to do so let me know. LOL Although you guys will have to TEACH me this AFRIKANNESE LOL! Aai tog? What is that?

Ohhh. That’s not good. Sorry to hear that. I say next time he pulls that crap go take the kids to a hotel and make HIM wonder where you are. And by the way… don’t call him. Easier to write about it than do though.

I am mom to three amazing boys Quintus (17), Jason (15) and Zander (11) and a much loved (foster) daughter Kyla (14).
They think I am supermom and that I have the ability to save their worlds. I will let them live in that fantasy world as long as possible....or as long as they will let me live there...

I have my own accounting practice. I share offices with my dad and even though to the outside world it seems confusing, it works out great for us.

Balancing a full-time job, homeschooling two of the boys and acting as stay-at-home mom isn't easy BUT we make it work.

We live in South Africa. A country that I love. A country of breath-taking beauty, diverse culture and shocking crime.
